“I was stopped at a stop light with my foot on the brake pedal. Suddenly the engine RPM went to wide open throttle. I mashed on the brake as hard as I could but the vehicle kept going forward. My son was in the car in front of me and even though his windows were closed as it is cold he heard the engine screaming and saw the vehicle moving forward. He moved forward so I did not hit him. I was able to put the vehicle in park and then the engine went back to idle.”
